98 Points

Friday, December 23, 2005 - This wine really opened up after 8 hours in the decanter. Double-decanted to start. It is a brooding, very very big wine with a strong backbone. The fruit is rich once the acid and tannin make way for it. The tannins are vibrant and soft after time. The nose is intense, with bacon, smoked meats, butterscotch, chocolate and cassis. The mouthfeel is incredible. An unbelievably intense wine with a finish that seems to last forever. Drink again in 3 years.
